I'm really liking Orville. In episode 5 they gave us the first glimpse of speed. And the Orville's quantum drive is SO much faster than Warp Drive. Top speed, the Orville could go from here to Alpha Centauri in 30 minutes. It'd take about 14 hours at Voyager's top speed.
As for Discovery, from what I've seen thus far, I don't like. The uniforms are neat... but way too fancy, its like asking a Navy ship to wear dress uniforms all day, every day for weeks. The Shenzou looked fine, but the Discovery looks like it has things in it because it's cgi and because we can. I understand that the cut out of the saucer is so the outer ring can rotate... but why? what possible practical purpose could that serve? The only thing I can come up with is so it can bring Phasers to bear on something it might not otherwise be able to. The whole vibe of the show smacks of Section 31, which could be cool if done properly, but I don't buy that Section 31 can get two (at least) state of the art cruisers at a time when the Federation is still in its infancy and really needs every ship it can get. If you want to set it in the Pre-TNG era, I could buy that, there's plenty of ships just sitting around in mothballs that Section 31 could just appropriate. The Klingons themselves look good to me, there's several different explanations as to why they look different, I'm a fan of the idea that this particular house is dabbling in restoring their look lost to them in Season 4 of Enterprise, and may have gone just a bit too far. A couple tweaks to the retro-virus they used to get here and they're back to normal. The ships on the other hand... all of them are just trash. The D7 was such a sleek, menacing looking ship, and these look like a wolverine lost a fight with a rose garden. Enterprise did a fairly good job of reversing the D7 (not counting the D7 appearing in "Unexpected") We could have certainly used a couple of D5s from Enterprise in the battle, and what about the D6? Axanar built a beautiful D6, if you're going to tell me the cruisers they fought were D6s... I might just cry.
I watched the first Episode on CBS, but I'm not paying for it just yet. Maybe around Christmas I might pick up the week trial and binge watch it. Or I might wait and see if they change their mind and move it to Netflix for season 2.
